• Lines 673 to 685 are literally: " He shall show to all
mankind that they should reverence the gods, and following
after what is holy, and studying- what is lawful, should do
the thing that is right. And if they do not so, this shall
follow : when one of them is caught doing what is impious,
blazing with madness, distraught with frenzy, if he should
do aught . , . it shall be manifest to all women and mortals
that God suddenly avenges all impious and unlawful acts."
